Just put this on to nurse a hangover. I haven't played it for years but within seconds of that oceanic synth washing over me at the start of Home I remember why this is one of my favourite albums ever. There are five essential artist albums that encapsulate the sound I love the most, that mid-90s summery progressive trance/house vibe. They are:

Paul Van Dyk - Seven Ways
BT - Ima
Blue Amazon - The Javelin
Way Out West - Way Out West
Chicane - Far From The Maddening Crowds

i'd agree the 4/5 of them, but i don't know the other, will check out, but...


no hybrid artist album?! you crazy? (or forgetful)

the first two are the pinnacle of electronica.

None of the Hybrid albums are "mid-90s summery progressive trance/house".

Honestly I would have picked the same 5. Really the sound of an era.

That was a special time for me and I had always worried that I was over rating some of the music because of the memories associated with it but I am glad people who arent nostalgic about it also love it.

There is nostalgia for me too because I played all of those albums to death as a teenager, but of course when I first heard them it was still almost 10 years since their original release.
